We  shall  will  !  we  shall  win  !  for  our  cause  it  is  just, 
Our  arms  ever  ready,  and  in  God  is  our  trust : 
Up,  up,  with  our  flag  it  sliall  wave  o'er  the  sea. 
We  shall  win  !   we  shall  win  !  ami  our  sons  shall  be  f; 

Down,  down  with  the  despots,  their  strongholds  assail, 
Their  eause  let  it  perish,  they  shall  not  prevail  ; 
On,  on.  with  our  might,  let  it  crush  their  wild  glee. 
We  shall  win  !   we  sliall  win!   and  OUT  BOOS  shall  he  free. 

March,  inarch,  with  the  cry  "ti>-  for  liberty  dear. 
We  fight  f«>r  oar  homesteads,  and  nothing  we  fear  : 
('.ime  on  then  ye  tyrants,  it  is  passed  the  decree. 
We  shall  win  !   we  shar?  win  !  and  our  sons  shall  he  free. 

Hark  !   Hark  !   what  is  that  stealing  over  the  shore. 
"Tis  the  wail  of  the  dying,  their  groans  on  us  roar  ; 
Hist!  hist  !   they  are  beaten,  and  away  from  us  flee. 
We  shall  win  !  we  shall  win  !  and  our  sons  shall  be  tr 

Now.  now,  let  the  trumpet  its  tones  blazen  forth. 
We  have  triumphed  and  conquered  the  imbecile  North  : 
Shout!  shout!  the  glad  tidings  with  cheers  three  times  three, 
We  have  won !  we  have  won  !  and  our  sons  shall  be  free.

Sing,  sing,  for  the  pride  of  the  tyrant  is  broken. 

Our  rights  we  maintain,  and  the  people  have  spoken  : 

l'p,  up.  with  our  flag  it  shall  wave  o'er  the  sea. 

We  have  won  !  we  have  won !  and  our  sons  shall  be  free.
